About two miles off the highway. Pretty easy to get to from the interstate by taking the truck route. There are a lot of permanent campers but they are pretty tidy and friendly. We had a pretty long pull-thru for our night stay. Fairly level so it didn't require extra effort to level. Power and water only and both worked fine. No Wifi. It is quiet and a pretty little spot with a lake on one side and big open field on the other. Worked fine for our overnight stop. Dump station not really convenient when leaving as I had to make a big loop to get in. - cwier

We stopped at the campground as an overnight stay during travel. Not too far off the interstate with easy drive through the small town. The staff is extremely friendly. We were assigned an easy pull-through site with water and electric. While we were setting up, a staff member stopped by to inquire if all was well. During a walk through the park, we discovered a group of fellows were playing music on the porch of the store. They were great and we enjoyed being part of their audience. Our site overlooked a meadow and we spotted deer in the morning as we were packing up. The dump station is easy access near the exit. There are some long term residents and there sites are kept nice and neat as well as the park. The only negative was the bath house was dirty and the showers moldy. Overall, we enjoyed our short stay, and would definitely stay here again. - Golfgirl

We stayed overnight on our way to St. Louis. Friendly owner, spacious campsites, 2 miles off interstate in a quaint "throwback" town. Nothing super fancy but perfect for our needs and quite a bargain. Would stay here again. - ECC

Quick check in. Gravel sites but seemed level. Pull thru sites for big rigs. Good WiFi. A really nice gated grass area for pets to run around without a leash. Plenty of grassy area behind, in front and between sites. Picnic table and a tree at each site. Park is not overcrowded at all and it's super quite. Staff is super friendly and really cared that we had a good stay. Even offered to give us a ride to the Chevy dealer in town where we were having our tow car serviced. We would definitely stay here again. - EggerMar

We stayed in this campground because it was close to our daughters house and we came to visit our new grandson. We stayed for 3 weeks. The camp hosts are very nice and helpful and I would give the little campground a 10 but can't due to the conditions of the bathrooms.The bathrooms are very primitive and dirty. One toilet had no seat, one sink was broke, no soap or paper towels. The showers offer little privacy, have push button knobs, no where to set your things and there were cigarette butts and old toilet paper on the floor. YUCK! We stayed in a treeless, gravel pull through. The space was huge and clean.They due have nice sites with trees but they aren't as big. Wi-Fi worked good but had terrible TV reception. Nice, quaint little park but if you stay here definitely bring your own potty and shower. - Bolt

The park was very quiet and clean. Sites were very easy to pull onto. Location is close enough to Carbondale SIU and several wonderful wineries in the area. - Debkay2u

This is a relatively small campground in a residential area that is convenient to the interstate for an overnight stop. There is nothing special other than it has full hookups. Interior roads are a bit tight, but navigable. All interior roads and RV sites are gravel. We were able to fit our 40' MH and toad on our site, but just barely. Our site was very soft (so we made no attempt to level) and there was standing water in much of the campground. They had about 4" of rain in the past 24 hours before we arrived. There were several long term residents in the campground, but their RV's were neatly maintained. There appeared to be several places to eat within a short driving distance. - Phaeton_Owner

We stayed here for a month during Christmas 2018. The manager, is fantastic, she keeps the park clean, quiet and is very responsive to any problems. For example, during our stay, one of the clothes dryers kept eating our quarters one night. We told her about this the next day, and she promptly refunded what we had lost. This campground is adjacent to I-57, but the road noise isn't too bad, especially if you like to sleep with a small fan running. The park was about a third to half full during our stay, occupied by folks who were working in the area (eg. travel nurses), but no "riff-raff". Everything is clean. We took advantage of the monthly rate, which was $525 at the time we stayed here, and this was with full hookups and included electric. We will definitely be staying here again! - SeanSadler

We had been on the road for hours and were hot and tired when we arrived. The lady in the office was so welcoming and friendly. It is amazing how her attitude made us feel. The campground was immaculate in every way, and it is obvious that great care is taken to keep it so. This was an overnight stop at the end of a month's trip. The campground is easily accessible to the interstate. We will return to this campground and stay longer next time we are in the area. - mtnloverme

Greeted warmly although I was early for my reservation because of time zone. Escorted to my site. TV was fuzzy on some channels, but overall good. Adjacent to I 55 so lots of traffic noise and trains. - Sunchaser v

Nice campground with very friendly staff. Even have a small kitchen that delivers sandwiches, etc. Our site was a pull through and level. I was concerned that our site was in an area that was down hill next to a stream and we were expecting rain. That said, the site area drained well and no issues were had. We travel with a dog so we found the dog park very small and limited space to walk around campground. Did walk on road next to campground but not recommended. There is a second part of campground across the street from where we were and may be more long term folks around a pond area. We knew nor were informed of this option when we arrived. Our site was close to tree hedges that appeared adjacent to I-57 and there was much road noise. Next time I would check on other side of road. - ownedafew

The Benton KOA is pretty nice, very clean with long, spacious, pull-through sites available. Double check your route with Apple Maps, Google Maps or even a paper map - I have no idea where the RV GPS was going to take me. No need to unhook tonight. Sites have a fire ring, picnic table and BBQ. There is nice partial shade but this affected my Dish. No worries, they have a 60-channel cable line-up. I chose just to use OTA and got 13 hi-def channels which is good enough for over-night. Although there is a "green buffer" between the park and I-57 there is some road noice. I can't hear it inside the house and its not enough to bother me if I were sitting outside - but, some people get pretty bothered. The wifi is really good as is my Version signal. The park has a nice looking pool as well as a good children's playground, catch and release fishing pond and enclosed dog park. Laundry, showers, bathrooms available but can't comment. They also also a delivery menu - I had a pulled smoked chicken sandwich basket with onion rings and a 4-piece chicken strip - $13.05 - I spent more at McDonald's the other day. It was pretty darn good and they deliver to your site. Only saw a small portion of Benton as we drove through but seemed like a clean city with lots of dining options. Also saw a sign for the "antique district." This KOA would be good for a few days or excellent over-night. the rate for a pull-through, 50-amp full-hook-up was $43.20. - Willym_Leaming

The park was just OK, but very expensive considering the size and condition of the sites. The sites offered with 50 amp were not at all level, eroded, and quite small. I don't think we'll be coming back.. - barsmith

Reviews of South Marcum Campground

Our first site, #82, was extremely unlevel. Do not recommend this site except for the smallest trailer. We were moved to site #72 which was perfect. Beware of site #82. - KristyWat690

Our 3d overnite stay in Owl's Roost section in 7 years. Well kept COE park with paved roads and sites. Extensive biking and hiking paths, lots of forest with deer, squirrels seen. Other sections have sites by the large lake. At Owl Roost electric only at 11 of 18 sites. a toilet/sink hut only with a water faucet close by in center of Owl Roost loop. Dump near entrance. My main complaint is almost all sites in the park are unlevel as seen from a biking around, many badly. Overall, the park is a great public resource. - 210jem

The person that checks you in was awesome. The campground litterally had 4 out of every 5 sites slanted. We had 4" under the back wheels and our trailer tongue was on the ground and we still were not level but it worked. We had, in our opinion one of the 2 best sites onto park. Excellent view, private but you could hear highway noise depending on the wind. Our site did need a better pick-up. - myo

We were in site 170. It had full hookups including sewer. The site was fairly level with a large area for the picnic table. A lot of sites had extra parking spaces. The park was very quiet and peaceful. Campground is kept clean. Great spacing between sites with views of the woods and lake. - User3701

Typical COE campground - well maintained, well laid out. Site spacing was good, most sites level. The Rend Lake bike trail is a long, concrete paved trail that runs around the South end of the lake and attaches visitor centers, day use areas, campgrounds and scenic areas. The path is segmented now, but will eventually include the State Park and run all the way to Mt. Vernon. You think of a bike trail being mostly flat - not so with the Rend Trail, but still a good trail for those who are in shape and used to biking. Some sites are full hookup. - Bama Camper

Beautiful location. Trimming some trees would improve the view. The county road you travel on to get there is a rough ride especially with the camper attached. Regular rate $24.00. (50% discount for Golden Agers). No wifi or cable - MamaBird

We stayed in this beautiful park in a travel trailer. The sites were shady and clean. The staff was great and the marina store provided the snacks and bait we needed. We loved the clean beach area. Perfect spot for kayaking. Boats and kayaks were available to rent. - Katelee

We stayed at Little Grassy from July to November on a work camping gig. It is a beautiful secluded park set on a 1000 acre lake. There is fishing, kayaking, canoeing, Jon boating, paddleboarding, and pontoon rental a available at the marina. You can also purchase minnows, crickets, and an assortment of worms there, along with a variety of snacks. You can also get fishing license on site. The RV sites are fairly large, but be sure to let the reservation desk know how big your rig is because not all sites will accommodate all rigs. I know this from experience. This campground was built 50 years ago when campers were made differently. You may need an extra power cord, water hose, or sewer line because the hookups at some sites are located far away. When we stayed we ran three power cords and two water hoses to reach our hookup. It is a fun and relaxing spot to camp at, especially if you canoe to the back forty where there are no pontoons and not very many people go. - Matt_Susan63801

We were looking for a full hookup site near Carbondale and we found this park was the only one nearby. (9 miles) We got one of the 3 full hookup sites at this park. The hookups were a challenge as the water and electric were 15' on the right and the sewer connection ended up under the motorhome 20' of hose was needed. The park personnel were nice and accomodating. We had a wonderful view of the lake and plenty to watch with a fishing tournament going on. Our site was level but we noticed a few sites were not so be prepared. - dreamer51

Very nice park with plenty of shade. The interior roads are a little tight and I can imagine it might be a bit tricky in a big rig. The CG is very nice however not very quiet as advertised. There is noise from the road and highway. Also there were trains going by night and day. The worst part was that we woke up on Wednesday to the sound of a lawn mower sucking up leaves and then a leaf blower. The park is huge and there were leaves in the rest of the park yet our area must have been top priority. The lawn mower was literally circling our RV at one point and driving back and forth past it for over an hour and a half. At one point that stopped and then the leaf blower started. It was right beside our RV on both sides. We were the only RV parked in our row. Then the lawn mower began again and continued until we left. I understand there needs to be lawn maintenance, I don't understand why it had to be done only around our RV first and for so long. Not the parks fault but on Monday the big rig parked next to us had an electrical problem and had to start it's motor and let it run every 20 minutes. Someone came out to repair it but they continued to run the motor periodically all day and that night. The park does look very nice and the person running it was nice. The laundry area is very nice and the washers and dryers are very affordable. Could be the cheapest we have paid to do laundry. The wood carvings around the park are incredible and we loved all the trees. We may stay here again for an overnight stop since it is the only one in the area, but only for one night. - KingFisher2

The park was quiet but clean. The park has lots of trees. The office staff was cordial but not overly friendly. I appreciated the fresh eggs and enjoyed watching the free roaming chickens. I would definitely return. - Solo Rver
